The Matrix is about....

[Old Greg]

Dead naming. It's a real shame that some individuals feel the need to blank out the part of their life before they decided they were a different gender.

Tell Neo that.

It's interesting that the more prominant people to change gender (afaik) are men beyond 50.

Bruce Jenner (Olympic decathlete in the earlier life), Robert Millar (pro cyclist in the earlier life), and now the Wachowskis.

Maybe it's more widespread than my limited knowledge so I'm only seeing a very small snapshot of the bigger picture, otherwise it seems to be a mid life crisis thing.

So the Wachowski brothers are now sisters. That seems more interesting than any Matrix talk,

First I've heard about a 4th Matrix movie. So Neo will now also be trans?

I hadn't heard they were, but agreed that has to be pretty rare. It is hardly a big leap to that understanding of the film though - pretty thin disguise in hindsight.

Matrix 4 has been in the works for quite some time, with most of the big original cast names. I am now wondering if the film will just be a thin veneer for 2.5 hours of trans apologetics dressed as a Sci Fi film, but I do think the idea of a character with different genders would've been quite interesting.

I do have to say, on the purely superficial level Lana and Lilly are about the least convincing trans women, they look like little Britain characters. I thought the photo I saw was a joke for a second.

A fictional character? Tricky.

Allow me to introduce you to Alex Drummond; a "lesbian" who sits on Stonewall's "Trans Advisor Group".

You regularly talk to a fictional character.

Not fictional, you just haven't met them

That said half the people here are fictional characters.

he is only fictional in your mind - take the red pill...

[Paralytic]

Babies and young toddlers don't have a concept of gender and sex. Babies don't even know they are separate individuals for the first few months and only at around 18 months do they realise that other people have different thoughts to them.

There's a guy/gal/other over not the stock market thread with the same issue!
